Maybe that was a mistake. I have added the line "Follow-up: alt.religion.emacs" to the header of my post. This Follow-up header is supposed to cause a recipient's newsreader to post follow-ups to a different newsgroup. I believe that this is some RFC standard, but I don't know for sure. It is common practise in many of the newsgroups I read to use this to change the group if a discussion has become off-topic or is supected to become off-topic. It is common to add line like "Follow up set to ..." or "F'up to: ..." to one's post to indicate to silent readers that follow-ups are expected to appear in a different group. > Secondly, I don't understand the "If you hadn't ignored it" part > either, since I didn't see any other group.

[...] I was not aware that the web interface in Google does not follow this convention nor that you use it. So I assumed it was intentional. Sorry for that.
